PACIFIC FLOORMEN
CLOSE GOOD SEASON
Last Tow Games Go to Strong
Linfield "Wildcats"
! ASSOCIATED STUDENTS
ELECT NEW OFFICERS
Pacific closed the basket ball season
of 192S-29 by dropping two games to
the strong Linfield team, the Hist on
the home floor on the evening of Mar.
1, the second at Linfield on last Tues-
day.
The first game was a rather slow
drawn out affair and both teams show-
ed all the poor basket ball they knew
before settling down to some real fight-
ing. The half closed with the score
tied up at 1G all.
The second half was different, Lin-
field starting the scoring and maintain-
ing her lead the rest of the game. The
final score was 37-27.
The game at Linfield was a very
pretty exhibition of basket ball on the
part of the Wild Cats. The varsity
did not see the ball very often, and
got it "less oftener." Linfield was "on"
in every phase of the game and their
open plays on the big floor left the
home varsity quite in the proverbial
hole. The only time they caused a
thrill was in the last few minutes when
Cole and Sweet dropped in about five
baskets. Pole was off most of the game
and the rest of the team were quite
unable to keep track of their men. The
final score was 59-33.
This was the last game for the col-
lege that Sweet and Everest will play.
It is only fitting that the Crescent staff
express in some small way its appre-
ciation of their hard work for the
school's athletes and for the continu-
ance of the "Good Sportsmanship" code
which the school tries to maintain.
Both these men will be badly missed
on future basket ball teams, and it is
(lie wish of the Crescent that they be
as successful at the "Big Game" as
they have been for our school.

World Listens as Chief Executive Takes
Oath of Office as President
Monday, March 4, the students of
Pacific College and Academy enjoyed
the privilege of hearing the Presiden-
tial Inaugural proceedings as carried
on at Washington, D. C. Through the
courtesy of Sweet and Huntington, lo-
cal radio dealers, there was a good set
installed in the college chapel and from
nine to twelve o'clock college and acad-
emy classes were dismissed. The stu-
dents met in the chapel and heard the
description of the ceremonies. It was
all very interesting and of no little ed-
ucational value to the students. Again
we were very proud of the fact that
at one time our new President of the
United States of America was a student
of our institution. May his adminis-
tration be a prosperous and peaceful
one.

1 BASEBALL PROSPECTS ARE
GOOD AT PACIFIC COLLEGE
PACIFIC COLLEGE SUPERS PROVE
ABILITY TO WIN IN FAST GAME
After losing to the Linfield Seconds
on their home floor, the Pacific Babes
came back to beat them on the Lin-
field floor. The game, though slow,
showed by far the best basket ball the
seconds have displayed this season.
The ball was teamed quite well and
some nice shots were made by Wood.
We are glad the seconds turned in
a good game with which to close the
season. They have showed that they
can fight and can win if they want to.
Here's to them for next year!
P. C. STUDENT SPEAKS ON
VALUE OF COLLEGE LIFE
Sunday afternoon, March 10, Ralph
Choate took part in the educational pro-
gram of the Quarterly meeting at the
Lents Friends church in Portland. He
gave a brief talk on "Why I Am At-
tending Pacific College."
f "\
My soul shall make her boast in
I the Lord: the humble shall hear
I thereof and be glad. — Psalm 34:2.
With a good basketball season over
and baseball weather here, P. C.s hope-
fuls are limbering the old arm. for what
appears a winning season. Coach Gul-
ley, known of old, is well versed and
has many baseball tricks up his sleeve,
and expects to push the boys over the
top this season. He will have the fol-
lowing men to make good his hopes:
Sweet, a Ietterman of the mound, with
Harley Bissett finding the old groove
and showing plenty of stuff. Behind
the bat will be two contenders, Smith
and Huntington, both new at this place
hut capable. At the first sack is Ha-
worth and Harle, both lettermen of last
year and both heavy sluggers. At sec-
ond, Moore and Bissett will scrap it
out. Third will fall to Gettman, a for-
mer Ietterman at that position. And
at shortstop McKibben, a new but flashy
fielder and sure hit batter. The out-
field will fall to three of several smack-
ing strikers, Wirt, De Vine, Wood, Ken-
dall, Whitlock, Sandoz, and McGuire.
Besides these there are new men the
height of whose ability is not yet known. I
There being high enthusiasm, P. C. I
will put out a track team this year.
Work has already begun upon the track
and equipment and a call for turnout
Will be made this week. This will be j
the first track season at P. C. in about
15 years, and a favorable result is an-
ticipated since everyone is "rarln' to |
go." As yet the amount of material
is only prospective, but such as there
is is plenty good for the field events,
and fast for the sprints and distances. |
Bissett, Wood, Harle, Haworth, and
Wirt are the known former high school
stars, and these with the rest of the
turnout can show any track team a
real meet. As far as known, the con-

FACULTY AND STUDENTS HEAR
A WORLD FAMOUS PIANIST
Last Saturday night a few faculty
members and students enjoyed the priv-
ilege of hearing the world famous Rus-
sian pianist, Sergei Rachmaninoff, at
the Portland Auditorium. Rachmanin-
off made his appearance about eight-
thirty and from then to the end of
the program he was master of that
great audience. The auditorium was
well filled with music lovers and it
proved to be a very appreciative audi-
ence.
Rachmaninoff began his program
with the composition, 'Sonate, opus 109,
by Beethoven. He then played pieces
from such great composers as Schuman,
Chopin, Rubinstein and Medtner. Rach-
maninoff then played his own compo-
sition, Etude-Tableau, after which he
played short pieces by Ravel and De-
bussy. The program was completed by
a group of three short sketches by
Scriabine.
At every moment of the concert Rach-
maninoff proved himself the master of
his instrument and the concert was
by far the best ever heard by the writer.
At the close of the concert the audi-
ence showed their appreciation by en-
coring Rachmaninoff until he had play-
ed several short numbers. The crowd
was particularly enthusiastic when he
.it last played his own great composi-
(Contlnued on page four)
The American History and Civics
classes of the Academy made a trip
to Salem to visit the legislature on
Friday, March 1.
The classes and the teachers, Mrs.
Wood and Miss Sutton, left the col-
lege at 8:30. They all arrived In Sa-
lem before 10 o'clock and those who ar-
rived first, climbed to the top of the
dome on the Capitol building, and from
there loudly hailed the late arrivals.
When they all met they went in one
group into the House of Representa-
tives. They remained there for about
an hour, during which time they heard
interesting discussions on the free text
liook bill and the bill for appropriations
for the infirmary at U. of O. They
were in the House when the former bill
was defeated and the latter one passed.
Then they divided into several groups
and went to eat lunch.
The Senate opened at 1:30, and at
1 o'clock most of the students were in
the Senate, willing to sit in the smoke,
to be able to get a seat, for the small
Senate room was usually crowded and
most people had to stand or stay out.
The classes remained there until 2:30.
During the hour in the Senate they
listened to discussion on the bill about
Portland telephone rates, but they had
to leave just before the vote was taken.
Senator Butt from Newberg gave a
speech in this discussion.
Then the group went through the
State Penitentiary and the Insane Asy-
lum, both of which proved interesting.
At 4 o'clock they all started home.
The day was enjoyed by everyone and
it proved very much worth while.
John Astleford was delayed and did
not arrive at the college building until
after the others had left. When he
had not come the others thought that
he had decided not to go and went on.
But John started out to walk and final-
ly got a ride into Salem and arrived
there a little after noon. He found the
rest in the Capitol building.
Those who took cars were: Miss Sut-
ton, Mrs. Wood, Eldon Newberry, Den-
nis McGuire, and Lillian Barnes. Mrs.
Barnes and Mrs. McGuire accompanied
the group and altogether there were
23 in the party.
LaVerne Hutchens and Ralph Moore
were unable to go on this trip.
TRIP TO PORTLAND NAT
PROVES A REAL TREAT
Saturday, March 2, a group of sfx
dorm residents went to Portland and
enjoyed a two hour swim at the Port-
land Nat. The party included Miss
Verplank, Esther Roberts, Betty Works,
Governor Terrell, Lincoln Wirt and
Ralph Choate.

I THANK YOU
As I take up the duties of editing the Crescent, I wish to
thank the members of the Associated Student Body for allowing
me this privilege. My work as Associate editor proved to me that
there is much to do in producing a college paper. You members
of the A. S. B. have supported the paper wonderfully in times
past and I feel keenly the need of your cooperation in making
the Crescent all it can be made.
I wish that each one of you would feel that the Crescent is
your paper, and I want yon to help by contributing whatever
items you believe will be of interest to the students. Don't let
the staff do all the work, but each one of you feel your respon-
sibility toward your paper.
As the new group of officers begin their administration I
am impressed anew with our responsibility toward them and the
success of their work. Let us lend our most hearty cooperation
to these new officers and help make this administration a highly
successful one. R. E. CHOATE.
Spring is just around the corner and the basket ball season
is past. Because it is so nearly spring, the thoughts of an ath-
letic young man turns to Baseball and Track. With these two
sports so wholeheartedly begun already on the campus, we may
expect great things before the season ends. There is a great
chance for expression of athletic prowess in these two sports.
May the students of Pacific back these spring sports as enthusi-
astically as we have backed the sports of the fall and winter
season. R. E. C.

the girls' dorm immediately following
dinner. Some of the group played ping
pong down in the dining room, while
others listened to several piano trios
in the parlor. As a closing feature of
the evening there was some excellent
music by the "Second Floor Serenad-

SECOND TEAM WINS
The Pacific Academy second team de-
feated the Fernwood Grade School 2S-S,
Saturday, March 2. at Fernwood,
The game easily belonged to the
Academy subs after the first five min-
utes, when they obtained several bas-
kets. Although an unusually large-
number of fouls were called, the game
was not rough. The subs showed fine
team work and developed a fine of-
fense in the second half, as well as a
splendid defense. The scoring was
about evenly distributed between the
players, Hutchens leading for the Acad-
emy.
The Academy boys who played were
Hutchens, O. Kendall, capt., Hanson.
Haines, Haworth, and Thorne.

The Casket Ball Manager has com-
piled a few totals dealing with the bas-
ket ball season just past.
For instance, the score book says
that the Varsity scored a total of 5S(i
points against 513 scored by their op-
ponents. They committed a total of
10,"> personal fouls, while the opposing
teams were dirty 100 times. Out of a
gross of 135 foul shots they weie only
able to convert 34, while the other
teams converted 73 out of 13S attempts.
The home boys counted 20(1 field goals
and held their rivals down to 220.
There is also some inteiesting data
as to the individual players.
Cole was high point man of the sea
son with a total of 174 points. These
were scored on 82 field goals and 10 1
fouls, i-le committed 3 5 personal fouls
and scored 10 out of 20 foul shots fori
a percentage of 30.
Sweet lang up 127 points on 57 field I
goals and 13 fouls. Eighteen personals
were called on him, and he counted 13 I
fouls out of 24 shots to hold the high-
est percentage, 54 per cent.
llarle only had 13 personals, the;
least of anyone. He caged 32 field
goals and 10 fouls for a total personal
score of 74. He made the 10 fouls
out of 21 shots for a percentage of 4S.
Haworth was next to high point man
with 103 counts. He was high in per-
sonals with the neat little sum of 35.
Out of 37 foul shots he rang up 13.
Which with his 75 field goals makes
his total. His foul molality was high,
leaving a percentage of 35.
Everest, standing guard, does not
have much in the score book, which
is as it should be. He made 33 points
from 14 field goals and 7 fouls. He
committed 24 personals and his foul
percentage was 7 out of 14, or 50 peri
cent.
Of course this tells nothing of the
men. Scores, though necessary in a
basket ball game, nevertheless are not
an index to a player's value. After
seeing all the games and watching the
players when on and off, wo would hate
to have to pick the best. One man
may be an outstanding point man and
a rotten door and defense man. An-
other may play the floor and not count
points. Still others may be guards and
ue\er have a chance to score. Each
is as vital as the other and as neces-
sary.
To the writer the "outstanding"
thing of the season has been good
sportsmanship. May it ever be so!

Pacific Academy made this last sea-
son a comparatively good record in
basket ball. This was a season in which
very few teams have gone undefeated,
and Pacific Academy should be proud
of her record, for she scored a total of
272 points to her opponents 2CS in 15
games; of which she won six games.
Ralph Moore, forward, was high
point man for this seiison with 02
points. Carl Sandoz, running guard,
and Damon McKibben, forward, ran
Ralph a close race; Carl is credited 5S
tallies and Damon with 54. The next
drop is to Errett Hummel, who scored
41 points from guard, center or for-
ward; then Denis McGuire, who count-
up 3(i tallies from center; Burton Frost
with 12 points fiom guard, or forward;
Morris Silver with S from guard, com-
pletes this list.
Twelve boys played for the Academy
during the past season. Each boy
played, out of a possible CO quarters
the following:
Carl Sandoz— 5!l
Errett Hummel — 53
Dennis McGuire — 50
Damon McKibben — 4S
Ralph Moore — 42
Morris Silver — 20
Burton Frost — 111
John Thome — 4
Ronald Hutchens — 3
Marvin Barnes — 2
Orla Kendall— 1
James Haworth — 1
This basket ball season is the most
successful one the Academy has had
for several seasons and everyone should
be proud of the team, the record they
made, and of the boys who played, for
most of the time they had an uphill
fight because they were playing against
.schools larger than this.
Saturday, March 2, Pacific Academy
was defeated by Fei nwood 30-10 in the
Fermvood gym.
The Pacific boys played one of the
best games of the season but were han-
dicapped by having only four members
o fthe regular squad piesent. Although
the second team members, who played,
did fine, they were tired from their
own game, and the Academy passing
attack was slowed quite a bit. Also,
although the guards played a splendid
game, the Academy defense was weak
because the running guards had to
play a more offensive game and leave
the back guard alone to guard the bas-
ket.
The Fernwood team played well and
had the advantage from the start. How-
ever, the Academy boys were fighting
all the time and took advantage of
every break that came their wav.

The meeting was turned over the
chairman of the initiation committee
after a short business meeting.
First, the new girls, Marian Coffee,
Eloise Crozier, Mildred Smith and Eliza-
beth Aebischer, gave very pleasing
verses. Then they were instructed to
change their dresses inside out and
front side back. They then went over
to serenade Mrs. Jlodgin, and as she
was not at home the girls visited Pres.
ident Pennington, who enjoyed it.
Lastly they went to town and begged
for Eskimo Pies which they received.
Thursday at school these four maids
were seen wearing long skirts and faces
brilliantly (if artistically) painted with
rouge and other cosmetics.
The Athena girls are very glad to
have these new members with them
and hope that they will enjoy the so-
ciety.
I wish to thank all those that helped
make Pacific Academy's basket ball
season a success this year. Cars were
easily obtained for our trips ami every-
one made the woik a pleasure.
I would also like to say a word of
appreciation thanking Arloene Davey

MRS. CHASE CONOVER GIVES
HELPFUL MESSAGE TO X. W.
ACADEMY SECOND YEAR GIRLS LEARN THE PIANO
HAVE CHARGE OF Y. W. C. A. IN fEN LESSONS
Mis. Chase Conover spoke to the Y.
W., March C. She read the fairy story,
"The Golden Purse and the Seeing
Eyes," suggesting its application to our
own lives.
The story is that of two brothers,
to each of whom the fairies granted
a gift. The younger took the gift of
the Seeing Eyes, while the elder chose
the Purse of Gold. College girls can
choose to live either the self-centered
life or the self-giving life.
How can we live to merit seeing eyes?
Mrs. Conover hi ought out three ways
in which we could do this. First, look
for the good and beauty in people and
things about us. We can usually find
beauty if we are looking for it. Seek
it in nature and in the gifts of civil-
ization. Next, meet ciicumstances op-
timistically. To illustrate this, Mrs.
Conover brought out some of the facts
of the life of Helen Keller. We should
say, "I pray not for the stilling of
my pain, but for the heart to conquer
It." Finally, we should give ourselves
to others without seeking advantage
for ourselves. In these ways we will
merit the gift of the Seeing Eyes. In
conclusion, Mrs. Conover asked the
question, "Are we going to live by the
way of the Golden Purse or the Seeing
Eyes?"
Special music was given by a quar-
tet — Genevieve Badley, Rachel Lund-
quist, Stanley Kendall, and Frank Cole.
A canoe is like a little boy. Both

The second year Academy girls had
charge of Y. W., February 27, with
the life of Alice Freeman Palmer as

WOOD-MAR HALL SCENE
OF ST. PATRICKS PARTY
Irish Students of Pacific College Prove
Excellent Entertain?! s
The Student Body of Pacific College
enjoyed a very good time at a St. Pat-
ricks party, given by the Irish of the
college, at Woodmar Hall on the eve-
ning of March 1G.
The students were met at the door
by the welcoming committee, who pin-
ned a green shamrock on each one.
If a stranger could have heard the
"Shures" and "No, Indades" he would
have surely thought he was in Ireland.
The object was to say "shure" for yes,
and "no, indade" for no. If they didn't
they forfeited their shamrock. There
was much excitement and exchanging
of shamrocks. One girl succeeded in
winning ten shamrocks. The first part
of the evening was spent in playing
such games as "Poison Penny," guess-
ing games, the egg blowing contest, etc.
One of the most interesting games was
the game, "Are you there, Kelly?" Two
boys "were blindfolded and a soda crack-
er tied on the top of each one's head.
They then knealt, facing each other-
with one of their hands on a book be-
tween them. They were each given a
long rolled up newspaper and then the
fun began. The object was to break
the cracker on the opponent's head.
They swung wildly at each other, hit-
ting every place but the cracker. Some-
times the roll of paper would saw swift-
ly through the air only to hit on the
floor. Finally the battle was won and
a ci acker was shattered. It was a
thrilling battle and was thoroughly en-
joyed by the spectators.
Partners were then chosen and all
adjourned to the chapel where an in-
teresting program was given. It con-
sisted of: a reading by Delia Hanville,
it clever skit entitled "Macbeth and
Macduff" by live boys; two saxophone
solos by Ralph Choate; a vocal solo
by Burton Frost, accompanied by Fio-
fessor Hull; another short skit in four
scenes showing how a movie is made.
Following the program the group was
divided into three families, the Caseys,
the O'Briens and the Murphys. Then
followed a very thrilling nut hunt. Af-
ter the hunt refreshments of shamrock
ice cream and shamrock cookies were
served.
The Irishman who made the party
a success was Dennis McGuire (Three
rousing cheers for Dennis!).
QUAKER GIRLS' SEXTET LOSES
FINAL GAME TO REED GIRLS
Playing a spirited game against a
much larger team, the Pacific College
girls' basketball team held the Reed
College girls' team to the close score
of 42-30. This game, which was the
finale for the local girls, was played
on the P. C. floor, Tuesday, March 1!>,
starting at 7:00 p. m.
The Reed "ferns" outplayed the Pa-
cific aggregation throughout most of
the game and were never in very se-
rious danger except in the fourth quar-
ter. In this canto the team, led by
Captain Esther Roberts, made a deter-
mined effort and brought the score to
within six points of the Reed total.
Reed called time out at this juncture

ROLAND HAYES CONCERT
THRILLS GREAT CROWD
Famous Negro Tenor is Rightly Called
an Artist of Music
It was the privilege of a number of
students and faculty members to attend
the Roland Hayes concert at the Port-
land Auditorium on the evening of
March fifth. The house was crowded
from gallery to pit with appreciative
admirers of the colored singer, yea, art-
ist, for he was a perfect master of him-
self and the stage. No less an artist
was the accompanist, Percival Parham.
Hayes' program was divided into
three groups to include the classical
songs in French and German, another
group in English and a third group
of negro spirituals. All was perfectly
done, but his second group received
the heartiest response from the audi-
ence, to which he in turn responded
most graciously with encores, and re-
peated the song, "The Pool." This
song, of exceeding brevity of composi-
tion, was rendered in such a perfect
manner as to be the outstanding num-
ber of the concert. It was a perfect
miniature in song. Singing the spirit-
ual songs of his race first won Roland
Hayes recognition, and he sings them
perfectly; but there was somewhat a
feeling of regret within the listeners
as he turned from the classical, for in
that he was such a master, to the spir-
ituals. Having so graciously responded
with encores during the program,
Hayes' only final encore was a negro
spiritual, "Were You There?" which
he sang without accompaniment, the
tones of his sweet tenor voice inter-
preting the feeling of the song and com-
pletely hushing the audience of thou-
sands of people.
During the entire concert Hayes did
not make any dramatic "show" of him-
self or his voice. His modest simplicity
and sincerity of every action led the au-
dience to look beyond the black face
to the man, the artist.
Those from Pacific who attended the
concert were: Miss Verplank, Rachel
Lundquist, Elinor Whipple, Horace Ter-
rell, Ralph Choate and Charles Beals.

NEWBERG PEOPLE WITNESS
STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES
Several Pacific students and Newberg
folks were privileged to attend the final
two games in the state high school bas-
ketball tournament held at Willamette
University, Saturday night, March 1G.
Washington High defeated Wallowa to
win first place in the consolation tour-
nament and third prize for the cham-
pionship division. Medford High (where
Governor Terrell hails from) defeated
Astoria for the title of " state champs."
Those attending were Governor Terrell,
Professor Gulley, Ben Huntington, Wal-
ter Taylor, Frank Cole and Joe Wilson.
The nine members of the college So-
ciology class, accompanied by their in-
structor, Prof. Emmett Gulley, Mrs.
Gulley, and Miss Verplank, instructor
of English of Pacific Academy, were
visitors at the Court of Domestic Re-
I lations of Portland. Thursday, March 2-.
| Although it is not customary to hold
I court on Thursdays, by special arrange-
' ment with Judge Gilbert the court was
j in session for the entire day, and a
special group of cases were presented
and tried for the benefit of the class.
From approximately 10 o'clock in the
morning until 5 o'clock in the after-
noon members of the class witnessed
1 one of the most interesting occasions
of their experience. Seated close to
i the cases upon trial, the class was able
1 to witness the procedure of a very in-
teresting and varied group of juvenile
cases, from truancy to immoral delin-
quency, from theft to infant adoption;
each different from the others, and each
filled with the pang of sorrow caused
by unfortunate conditions. Practically
I every case was the result either di-
; rectly or indirectly from broken homes,
I caused from death or by law.
I Another interesting feature of the day
| was the visit by the class to the jail,
located in the same court building. The
1 class was graciously shown through the
1 jail by the officials, and had the oppor-
tunity to inspect the prisoners and cells.
| Approximately 400 prisoners lined up
for inspection in the men's division,
! and but 15 in the women's department.
' Most of the prisoners were very young
in appearance, most of which appeared
' to be between the ages of 20 and 40.
I Conditions in the women's department
seemed to be much better than in the
men's division.
The trip was a most profitable one
for the students and created much in-
terest for all of the members of the
party.
Those making the trip were: Rosa
Aebischer, Rae Lundquist, Margaret
Jackson, Elisabeth Carey, Miss Ver-
plank, Mrs. Gulley, Glen Rinard, Ken-
neth Yergen, Ervin Diment, Philip
Gatcli. Stanley Kendall, and Prof. Gul-
ley. Prof. Gulley and Ervin Diment
took their cars to accommodate for
transportation.
ACADEMY ELECTIONS PLANNED
At a student body meeting on Mon-
day, March IS, the matter of getting
a better giade of letters for basketball
men was discussed.
The planning of Academy elections
proved quite a problem, and it was de-
cided to lay the matter on the table
until the extent of next year's student
body can be officially ascertained. If
elections are held, the fourth years
will have charge of a party system.
The following people visited the Do-
mestic Relations court of Portland for
the afternoon session, with the college
Sociology class Thursday: Genevieve
Badley, Frank Cole, Generva Street,
Helen Whipple, Professors Terrell and
Mathers. Prof Terrell furnished trans-
portation for the group.
FRESHMEN READY TO BEGIN
WORK ON THEIR CLASS PLAY
"Come Out of the Kitchen," a three
act comedy written by E. A. Thomas,
has been selected by the Freshmen class
as their play and is to be presented
April 2G. According to Mrs. Wood, the
coach, the cast will be chosen and work
will be started as soon as the eligibility
lists are completed.

TRACK NEWS
Track, a sport at Pacific College for
the first time in fifteen years, is "com-
ing right along." Despite the fact that
there are but ten fellows turning out.
we have, considering the size of P, C.
a wealth of material. Coach Gulley has
developed an immense amount of in-
I terest developing into the proverbial
"bacon" which Pacific does its best to
bring home in all sports.
So far, the best distances in the field
events, the discus, shot put, and jave-
lin, are all held by Dick Everest, al-
though no true measurements have yet
been taken. Dick Haworth is runnel'
up in all these events.
In the high jump, Bob Bissett sits
on top of 5 ft. 1 in., with Dame Mc-
Kibben and Link Wirt close behind.
The pole vault also falls to Bob at
8ft. Fred Harle and Smitty, however,
are threatening that mark.
The running events are slightly bet-
ter. The 100 yd. dash has been clocked
at 10.5 seconds for both Bob Bissett and
Link Wirt, while Dick Everest and
Dame McKibben are but a step behind.
The distance runs have all been swip-
' ed by the mighty Dick Haworth, who
has left his opponents all running back-
wards. Dick copped the two-mile in
11 minutes, 7 seconds (11:7), the mile
in 5:25. and the half-mile (8S0 yds.) in
2:21. Swede Hanson is a good second

OUR CAMPUS
Several days ago a speaker in chapel gave us an exceedingly
interesting talk in which he told us how fortunate we were in
going to school in such a beautiful valley and such a clean and
pretty little city. I enjoyed that talk because I got from it the
viewpoint of a person who has not lived here for long and who
has traveled much and can make accurate comparisons of this
valley with other spots of more or less natural beauty. As I
listened to the talk I began to wonder if we as students really
do appreciate, as we should, the natural beauties of our surround-
ings.
A few days after having heard the talk I went back up on the
top of Chehalem mountain in the evening just after sunset.
From such a height I looked out over the valley and saw the
farms marked off in much the same form as a crazy-quilt pat-
tern, with small groves of trees making darker green spots
against the background of open fields. In the west I could see
the uneven horizon of the mountains, and the sky above them
was dull gold which rapidly faded to a purple gold and finally to
a deep blue. The lights of the valley began to show more plainly
and made a lovely spectacle against the now dark valley floor.
The moon came out in all its brilliance and the valley took on a
most beautiful appearance. There was about everything that
soft radiance that only moonlight can give. I sat for some time
and watched the great panorama spread out before me and com-
pared it in my own mind with other beauty spots of the country
that it has been my privilege to see.
I came back to the campus with a greater appreciation of
the fact that I am attending Pacific College at Newberg in this
beautiful northwest. Our own campus compares very favorably
with campuses of great schools on which large sums of money
have been expended.
It is not long until our annual "Campus Day" and we will
give our campus its spring cleaning. A pleasant environment is
an important factor in success in any line. Whether or not it
is realized at the time, everyone is more or less influenced by
the surroundings. If we give our campus a thorough cleaning
and then keep it clean, we will be better able to give the best in
us to our work.
The chapel speaker that morning gave us a challenge. First,
look about you and realize the beauty on every side; and second,
tell others about these advantages we enjoy and thus help our
school to grow. Should we neglect such a challenge?
Spike Thorne and Fred Harle are also
i in the running.
The riuarter-mile (-440 yd.) run is an-
other tie, between Dick Haworth and
I Link Wirt, the time being 1:3.
I The 220 yd. dash, 120 yd. high, and
I 220 yd. low hurdles, and the broad jump
have not been attempted so far, though
they will probably be entered by Bissett
in the high hurdles and the broad jump,
' Bissett and Everest in the 220 yd. dash, I
leaving Bill Wood, McKibben and Wirt
tor the low sticks. Errett Hummel is
general utility man.
There are, so far, but three Academy
students out for track, and two of them
; are Second Years, but Bob Bissett, man-
nger, is issuing a call to all Academy
students to turn out and make up the
' rest of the semester's gym credit.
The above marks and times are the
I result of but two weeks of practice,
I but by the time of the conference meet
1 at Monmouth, May 11, with the back-
I ing of all true Pacific students, the
fellows will have bettered every mark
and we can look forward to a good
representation of Pacific College in the
conference meet. Let's back them up!

ACADEMY TUMBLING CLASS
SHOWS EXCEPTIONAL ABILITY"
TENNIS SEASON BEGINS
Everybody is saying, "Well, spring
is here. Everybody play this, or ev-
erybody turn out for that." That's get-
ting old already and it is the opinion
of the writer that something original
should be propounded on that line.
Christmas is exactly nine months
minus one day away, so it is time that
many interested minds should be turned
toward that exciting sport of tennis.
Manager Choate, the keen minded push-
er of this sport this year, has already
begun hostilities against all opposing
factors and has placed a tennis ladder
in the gym directly alongside the main
door leading to the gym floor. You say
you don't know what a tennis ladder
is? Well, it isn't the kind used to "get
up" out of bed in the morning, nor
is it the kind you use in hanging pic-
tures. It is the kind of ladder on which
the abilities of the twelve uppermost
tennis masters are placed. All you have
to do to climb is to defeat the fellow
either one or two places ahead of you
and change places with him.
To make the original placements of
the men a number of lots were written
and drawn by entering contestants. De
Vine stepped out to start the ball roll-
ing by defeating Post. The order on
the ladder at the present time is as
follows: Cole, Beals, Gatch, De Vine,
Haworth, Post, Kendall, Jackson, Ever-
est, Huntington, Whitlock, and Smith.
Others may crash in on the ladder by
defeating either of the last two men.
Professor Terrell presented the Acad-
emy boys' tumbling class in a chapel
program, Tuesday, March 1!). Dressed
in neat white jerseys and trousers, the
entire class participated in the program.
After a short talk by Mr. Terrell the
hoys demonstrated rolls and dives in
their fundamental aspects. Then came
leap frog stunts and dives from the div-
ing board through a hoop.
Orla Kendall displayed his ability to
perform gainers. Terrell, Sandoz and
he then executed front and back flips,
and high and low foot balancing.
The two boys displayed great ability
in their back flips, doing them from
the mats, from the hands, the shoul-
ders, and the feet of the thrower, who
obligingly assumed the proper positions.
Fred Harle, assisting on the program,
gave an exhibition of tight-rope walk-
ing. Fred was loudly applauded for his
ability to walk back and forth on the
rope stretched about six feet above the
floor.
The previous three performers now
delighted the audience with a high
shoulder stand, and three man pyra-
mids done on two tables. These were
real thrillers.
The program closed with two pyra-
mids by the class. The first, a walk-
ing pyramid, was composed of eleven
boys, four of whom held the weight
of the others and marched out on the
platform and executed a left turn.
The group then fell out, lined up,
and arranged themselves in formation
for the "squash" pyramid. This placed
four boys on their hands and knees,
three on top of them, two higher up,
and one man at the top. After holding
this position for some time the entire
group straightened out and heaped
themselves In a pile on the floor. It
was so well done that everyone came
up smiling, as the curtains closed.
Those in the class are: Orla Kendall,
Carl Sandoz, Fred Harle, Alfred Ken-
dall, John Thorne, Veldon Diment, El-
don Newberry, Wesley Kaufman, and
Cecil Newberry.

The installation will be held at the
next meeting.
After the business, the meeting was
turned over to the new members. Be-
cause of the proximity of St. Patricks
Day an Irish program was presented.
The main feature was a play entitled
"The Work-House Ward." The meet-
ing was a success and they all parted
with many a laugh.
BOYS' DINNER CLUB
"Pull it out quick," came the cry.
It was nearly too late but the sand-
wich was still eatable. Occurrences o?
this kind are very frequent at the meet-
ings of the Boys' Dinner Club, which
meets in the Academy basement near
the furnace. The boys toast their sand-
wiches in a variety of shades ranging
from a delicate brown to an intense
black. It has been discovered that two
slices of bread wrapped around a raw
egg and plenty of lettuce will develop
into a deliciously crisp fried egg sand-
wich, if properly toasted. The boys
have developed a great deal of skill
and their appetites have responded no-
bly.

WHAT CAN IT BE?
What is it that has come over our
school lately? Why, all last semester,
as far as we know, Pacific and all her
students were entirely natural, that is,
except when the Governor called for a
fire drill in the men's dormitory. And
now look what we have! It must be
a disease, otherwise why should every-
one be so crazy to get away on roller
skates about dinner time? Why should
others climb in the Gov's car and set
off for the mountain to view the sun-
set? What causes two girls to hike
to Springbrook each day before break-
fast, two well known tennis sharks to
battle out a few sets every early morn,
and a couple of other fellows to persist
in taking up track work at 0:15 a. m.?
What makes Coach Gulley "war whoop"
continually during practice? Why does
Spud Post flitter his i;ollicking tenor
about in the atmosphere, and why does
Miss Betts always ring the class bells
three minutes late, and what makes the
library clock stop? Why does Walt
Taylor pose as an Invalid in front of
the girls, and how does Dame McKib-
ben's hair curl so cutely? What causes
Smitty to run about like a beheaded
chicken, and Fire Chief Choate to look
and sigh at the rain and say, "No work
for me today?" Why does President
Huntington call so many student body
meetings for no good reason at all?
Why can't the Academy students sit
still in the library, and why does Phil
Gatch wear knickers and a scarf to
school? We know of a thousand and two
other things that we could mention,
such as Freshmen hunting bullfrogs
on the front campus, but we're trying
to get at the cause for all this foolish-
ment. Yes, you've guessed it! Why,
to be sure, SPRING has SPRUNG!

Eldon C. Newbeiry spoke on "Boost-
ing Your College." Mr. Newberry is
the newly elected financial secretary
for the college.
Pacific College has everything that
goes to make a good college. What
about college loyalty here?
Mr. Newberry suggested several ad-
vantages of the college, which may he
emphasized to influence students to
come here. Speaking of the climate, he
said, "You have the most wonderful
climate in the world." He mentioned
the beauty of the scenery, terming this
"the most beautiful sport in the North-
west." To the south is Crater Lake,
to the north are the magnificent Col-
umbia River and Columbia River High-
way — far famed for grandeur of scen-
ery- Right here is our own little city
with its many churches and fine build-
ings.
In conclusion Mr. Newberry empha-
sized that Pacific is already one of the
finest colleges in the country, and urged
that the students encourage other
young people to come here.
March 14
A brief student body meeting was
held. In oider to hasten selection of
a student body play, the Dramatics
manager was elected at this meeting.
Genevieve Radley will fill this position.
She will be chairman of a committee,
the other members being chosen by her.
March 15
Dr. Lee, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, spoke on cultivating a greater
appreciation of the wonders of God.
He emphasized the need of deeper de-
votional life and analytical study of the
Bible.
The challenge comes to us to find
God. He is hidden in His word. "The
Word is the living Word and He is the
Life," said Dr. Lee.
In conclusion he suggested that we
study to see the wonders of the Chris-
tian experience, of the miraculous birth
of Christ, and of the Bible, which pre-
serves to us Christianity in its purity
and beauty.
March 22
Chester Dimond, editor of the Newberg
Graphic, was the speaker at the Friday
chapel period. He told some of his ex-
periences in the newspaper business,
which, he said, had its "ups and downs"
as any other business has.
In speaking of the interest of the
work, Mi'. Dimond said that it furnish-
es a complete change each week. "There
is romance, ministry, love, and hope
in it," he said.
In outlining his newspaper career,
Mr. Dimond mentioned three chapters.
His earliest experience was in a "one
horse" town, where there were two
newspapers. Later he moved to a larg-
er town in a desert country. There
he experienced sudden success at the
time of a great oil rush, and as sudden
loss.
From there he moved to Newlierg
where he has had several years of very
interesting experiences in dealing with
the public.
Mrs. Rebecca AV. Smith spoke in Y.
W., March 13, on the subject, "Mouths
That Water Not."
She Used several verses fiom the Bi-
ble as texts: "Blessed are they that
hunger and thirst after righteousness,
for they shall be idled," and "Open thy
mouth wide and I will fill it." Some
people do not hunger and thirst after
righteousness; that is, 'Mouths have
they and they water not." She said
that some people do not want to be
Christians, because if they did they
would like it, "and they just couldn't
bear it." Other verses she used were:
"This people draweth near me with
their mouths, but their hearts afar off,"
and "Out of the same mouth come curs-
es and blessing." Different kinds of
mouths mentioned in the Bible are: of
God, of babes, of the wicked, of the
righteous, and of fools. She concluded
with the words: "Whether ye eat or
whether ye drink, whatsoever ye do, do
it all for the glory of God."

20, was led by Dr. Clark of the Free

dents and faculty members. Thank you,

QUAKER GIRLS' SEXTET LOSES
FINAL GAME TO REED GIRLS
(Continued from page one)
wards kept the ball above the heads of
the shorter Pacific guards and conse-
J quently converted enough of numerous
wild shots to bring their number of
points to their final total. The scores
each half was about the same for each
sextet.
| Meredith Davey had her eagle eye
I directed on the basket throughout the
first half and did most of the scoring
I in that canto. In the second half Es-
ther Roberts began locating the basket
and caged several herself. Dorothea
Nordyke, jumping center, and Dorothea
Woods, side center, handled the ball
well, making several well directed pass-
es to the forwards so that those girls
were able to make baskets as a result.
The Pacific guards, Irene Brown and
Lillian Barnes, were greatly handicap-
ped because of the elongated longtitude
of the opposing forwards. Nevertheless
these two girls played one of their best
games of the year and by extreme ac-
tivity on their part kept the Reed for-
wards working for every point. Rachel
Lundquist was substituted for Irene
Brown during the third quarter.
